An Attitude of Gratitude, Kindness, and Mental Health

Hello everyone! A very warm welcome to each and every one of you! Thank you so much for stopping by to visit me!

Some of you have mentioned in your comments your appreciation of some of the things I post on mental health. For this reason I will include things that hopefully will help you with anxiety, stress,  depression or any other mental health issue you may be struggling with.

Here is my selection for you today, which I hope will put a smile on your face or just brighten your day in some way!

Just because life can get crazy, doesn't mean you must go crazy. You can experience outer chaos, and still find inner peace. Nothing even needs to change outside you, to find calm inside you. This calm is available at all times. Just breathe....
